EFL/ESL Online English Language Tutor (Individuals)

I'm a TEFL Certified (ITQUK) freelance EFL/ESL tutor. I’m also a highly skilled Finance Professional with extensive experience in the International Development sector.

My First Language is English, and I’m fluent in Afrikaans. I have intermediate level skills in French, and I’m at beginner level in Spanish, Portuguese and Arabic (MSA).

Since 2020, I've taught more than 240 lesson hours to students at all levels. My students come from diverse backgrounds and age groups, and are located in various parts of the world, including Canada, Taiwan, France, Tunisia, Senegal and Belgium.

My lessons are student-centred, engaging, and flexible! Lessons are continuously adapted to suit the individual; every lesson is structured based on the needs of the student.

The focus of lessons will initially be based on a student needs assessment carried out at the start of your course, and subsequent lessons will be adapted based on your progress throughout the duration of a specific course. Specific learning areas may include:
* Refining pronunciation
* Practicing everyday language and conversational skills
* Exam preparation, focusing on specific grammar and/or vocabulary
* Reading comprehension and practice
* Writing correction and practice
* CV and Cover letter drafting
* Job interview preparation

Lessons are conducted almost entirely in English. This has shown to be the most effective way for students to learn a foreign or second language!

It is recommended that you book an initial course of at least 20 hours.

Sereina
Tutoring and exam preparation Spanish and English
English and Spanish are world languages and more and more people of all ages are discovering the opportunities that come with learning these beautiful languages - especially traveling and getting to know other countries and cultures. English is a compulsory subject in all schools and at all levels, and Spanish is also offered as a core or elective subject in many high schools. I lived in a Spanish-speaking environment for several years (Mexico, Spain, Paraguay) and also began my first degree in Spanish language and literature at the University of Zurich. I took an IELTS diploma in English two years ago so that I could study in English. I love languages and I really enjoy teaching them to other people. As I majored in Spanish at high school, I know what knowledge is required at this level for the exams and especially the Matura.

Carmen
English, mathematics and general school support from Primary to High School
Using my experience as a student, I first teach the vocabulary that will later be memorized through different exercises, both written and oral. This is how grammar will also be implemented. We will try to liven up the classes with short videos and songs from time to time, as I think they are a good tool to improve oral comprehension. If parents prefer to focus on general school support, we will work on the most difficult subjects, trying to give some time to each one, in a pedagogical and calm way.
